Disco Drive er fra Torino i det italienske. Deres musik starter, hvor inerverende new-wave stopper. De er leveringsdygtige i elektroficeret rock med dansable toner og er ikke bange for at redefinere grænserne mellem støj og melodi, rytme og improvisation, pop og avangarde. Intet mindre! Er beskrevet som The Clash i kø for at komme ind på Studio 54 møder Ian MacKaye fra Fugazi, som åbner hans fødselsdagsgave og finder ud af, at det er en plade medTito Puente.

Gigavolt er et to-mands støjorkester, der laver lydsider til fiktive film og tænkt teater. Genrerne favner rå atonal larm, naiv pop, støjende rock og electro-ambient, men med en samlende rød tråd af det instrumentale og improviserende.

Og lidt på engelsk om italienerne...

"Disco Drive formed in Turin (Italy) back in 2002 and they have played about 220 shows since, some of them were with The Long Blondes, Klaxons, The Black Keys, El Guapo/Supersystem, Q And Not U, Oneida, Black Eyes, Out Hud, The Thermals, Metronomy, The Organ, Hot Club de Paris, Deerhoof, Help She Can't Swim and many many others, to a growing fanbase, all over the old continent.

Their sound has been described as: The Clash queuing to get inside Studio 54 meets Ian MacKaye (Fugazi) unwrapping his birthday gift to find out it’s a Tito Puente album. Slave to the rhythm! Musically they begin where all the neo-new wave bands end. They allow themselves to delve into experimentation. The percussion and drums already present on their debut album are now to the fore more than ever. Live, the three vocalists between them play two drumkits, guitar and bass.

Back in Italy, Disco Drive are big news. Their debut album is already into its third pressing. They have collected many awards including best Italian debut of 2005. And they were nominated by MTV Italy as one of the top 5 live bands of 2005.

While in the Uk they have received airplay on both Xfm and Steve Lamacq’s Radio One show and featured on a recent Artrocker Magazine cover CD.

Disco Drive redefine the boundaries between noise and melody, rhythm and improvisation, pop and the avant-garde.

They released an album called "What's Wrong With You, People?" and an EP called "Very EP". Their first UK single came out February 26th through Tough Love Records (7" and digital download) and it's basically sold out.

A Disco Drive song is included in the next Dance To The Radio (home of Forward Russia, Shut Your Eyes And You'll Burst Into Flames, Yes Boss and many others) compilation out later this year.

Unafraid to challenge themselves with new musical directions, Disco Drive escape the safe path of (the so called) punk funk to try something uneasy, but much more intriguing. Their new songs start with what the old ones accomplished and make it to a different level. The new album 'Things To Do Today' mixed by Steve Revitte (DFA, Liars, Black Dice) is out in September."
